You can pray in a mosque on the way. As winter approaches the prayer time will be closer to the meeting time and it would be better and convenient and safe to pray on the way as you avoid over-speeding and reaching late. On Al Ain road, you can pray Juma here.

Offroad lights are definitely recommended but not a must on this particular drive as the level would be comparatively easy for an intermediate drive.
@Aneez we will be more or less off-roading close to the shops for the first 30 minutes.. if you can make it there by 9, we’ll figure out a way for you to join the convoy
That would be great. Thanks a lot for considering. See you on Thursday
I have been running around like headless chicken at dragon mart trying to find Motorola GP 338+ but apparently it is banned and most of the shops have only pre programmed walkie talkies with fixed channels and they can’t tell if it is possible to Programme it or no
Anyone has any clue if Motorola 777 Mt can be programmed? Or even better if ICOM IC V8 because I have 8 already in my office
I appreciate any quick help because I need it before Friday (Ideally today) to be ready for Friday’s ride
Motorolla 777 is the one which most of us use. Ask them to programme it for you to have the regular frequencies. You will find the usual frequencies with channels on DO forum if u search for it. But the DM guys know them and will do it for u.
aneez bhai, you have option to join the Thursday drive.
Asem Bhai missed that as well . By the time the drive was announced I had made plans with family..
Next time Insha Allah.

Have you guys confirmed your membership? If not after signing in your account confirm your membership and then inform the moderator (Mr Ahmed or Faateh or Hamza) and once they confirm it then you will start seeing the “I am in” button and then you can register for drives.
Welcome to DO @Karim
As a newbie you go with newbie convoy so don’t worry as it’s going to be newbie level for you.
DO NOT forget to register for the drive clicking on the green button “I’M IN”.
See you on send.
And dont forget to bring a 2 way radio with DO frequencies programmed. Without a radio even advanced drivers have a hard time. You will have a great time and DO newbie drives are very safe. See u soon on the drives…
